"This volume presents a selection of Hellenistic prose and poetry, ranging chronologically from Philitas of Cos through Alexander
of Aetolia and Hermesianax of Colophon to Euphorion of Chalcis and Parthenius of Nicaea, whose mythography Sufferings in Love
is the major work in the collection. Knowledge of many of these texts has been increased by papyrological discoveries in the
last century, yet few of them have appeared in English translation before now. Taken together, these works represent the geographic
and stylistic range of a rich and inventive period in Classical literature."--Jacket

"This volume is an edition of the poetical and grammatical fragments of Philitas of Cos, the early-Hellenistic scholar and
poet who served as an exemplary model for the great Alexandrian poets. His output includes frivolous Hermes and Demeter which
both had fundamental impact on later metapoetic imagery, and the Ataktoi Glossai, a glossary interpreting mainly Homeric idiom
in pre-Aristarchean fashion." "The body of the book consists of an Introduction discussing life, literary affiliations and
metre; an edition of testimonies and fragments along with a commentary elucidating matters of language and influence on the
scholar-poets, Propertius and Longus. The study of Philitas is brought up to date with new testimonies and neglected sources
for the fragments. Recent papyrological findings, verse inscriptions, lexicographic sources and inscriptions from Cos are
taken into consideration. Passages dubiously ascribed to Philitas are discussed. The book closes with three Appendices and
comprehensive Indexes."--Jacket
